The Honeycomb or Lace Mask is a comfortable, porous lightweight frame that holds and seals a disposable activated carbon filter. The carbon fabric plus 2 inner layers of filtration material reduce exposure to indoor and outdoor pollutants: fragrances, particles, cigarette soot, smog, dust, diesel fumes, formaldehyde, and household chemicals from 50% to 95%, depending on the substance.
When not in use, the mask and filter may be hung to dry if damp, then sealed in a bag. If the taste or smell of pollution comes through, or you feel discomfort in your chest, it is time to discard the filter. How long the filter lasts depends on your sensitivities and environment.
Washing
If you are sensitive to fragrances, wash the frame before wearing to remove any residue from manufacturing.
The Honeycomb or Lace Mask is washable in cool water with unscented liquid detergent or dissolved baking soda. Rinse. Blot with a towel, then hang to dry before inserting a disposable carbon filter.
Do not wash the filter, discard it.
